Forwards Taylor Cammarata of the Islanders, Connor Hurley and Sean Malone of the Sabres, the Rangers’ Keegan Iverson, Coyotes’ Ryan MacInnis, Canadiens’ Michael McCarron and the Blues’ Austin Poganski were also cut along with Ryan Hitchcock and Vinni Lettieri.

“He’d be fun to coach for a long period of time,” said US coach Mark Osiecki of Eichel. “He’s so talented, a great kid. I think he’s developed some leadership skills. High-level skater; he’d probably be a top-10 skater in the NHL right now. His skating is effortless. He’s fun to watch and a fun kid to be around.

“I think those high-level players, they’re special players. You can’t teach that. He knows where everything is on the ice at any given point, not only his own players but the opponent. He has a great knack for understanding where everyone’s at. He has a great feel for the game, great hockey sense.”

All four goaltenders, who were invited to camp, still remain in Lake Placid. Brendan Burke of the Coyotes, Evan Cowley of the Panthers, the Canucks’ Thatcher Demko and the Rangers’ Brandon Halverson will have three more games, beginning Wednesday against Sweden, to showcase their game.

Demko, as Kimelman reported Monday, has struggled at camp thus far. Vancouver’s second-round pick from June allowed two goals on seven shots in the Americans’ 4-3 loss to Finland.

Eight defensemen also remain in camp.

The Americans’ other exhibition games include Finland and the Czech Republic.
